1. when x=3 and y=2

find the value of 2x + y

2. divide $328 in the ratio 1 : 3

3. 6 cost 90 pence what would 9 cost?

4. what is 0.25 of a pound

Answer 1

$\huge\fbox{Answer ☘}$

1 )

when x = 3 ; y = 2

$\bold\blue{✯\:\:\:2x + y}$

substitue x = 3 and y = 2 in the given equation !

$\bold{2(3) + 2 = 6 + 2 } \\ \bold{ = > 8}$

2 )

We've to divide 328 in the ratio of 1 : 3

let the respective distribution be x and 3x.

Then ,

$\bold{x + 3x = 328} \\\bold{ 4x = 328 }\\ \bold{x = \cancel\frac{328}{4} } \\ \\ \bold{x = 82}$

the respective shares are :

x = $82

3x = $246

3 )

6 pens cost $90

therefore ,

cost of 1 pen =

$\cancel \frac{90}{6} = 15$

further ,

cost of 9 such pens = $15 × 9 = $135

4 )

0.5 of a pound = 113.398 grams
